Revenue model
- Equipment Supply and System Integration: Hydrexia designs, engineers, and delivers integrated hydrogen systems including equipment supply, installation supervision, and commissioning. Revenue is generated through project-based contracts for turnkey hydrogen infrastructure. The company provides end-to-end solutions from production through dispensing, positioning itself as a single-source provider for industrial hydrogen needs.
- Service Parts and Ongoing Support: Aftermarket service parts, preventive maintenance contracts, and remote monitoring services. Case studies indicate 24/7 remote monitoring is built into delivered systems, with preventive maintenance programs (e.g., every two months) generating recurring service revenue.
- Refueling Station Operations and Maintenance: Agreements covering supply, operation, and maintenance of refueling equipment (e.g., Toyota Australia order for relocatable hydrogen refueling stations). Generates recurring revenue through O&M service contracts alongside equipment sales.

Products and services
- MHx Solid-State Hydrogen Storage Magnesium-based metal hydride (MHx) hydrogen storage system housed in standard 20-foot ISO containers for safe, low-pressure (<30 bar) hydrogen storage and transport. Available in High Temperature (350°C desorption, 1,000 kg H2 capacity) and Low Temperature (60°C desorption, 250 kg H2 capacity) variants with 30+ year operating life and non-pyrophoric safety characteristics.
- H2 Production (SMR + PSA) Steam Methane Reforming combined with Pressure Swing Adsorption delivering 20,000 Nm³/h of hydrogen at 99.999% purity via a five-stage process (desulfurization, SMR at 810°C, water gas shift, MDEA decarbonization, PSA final purification). Achieves 90% hydrogen recovery with 25–100% turndown range; deployed as modular skids or field-built systems.
- Gas Purification Systems Modular hydrogen purification platforms (PSA, TSA, palladium membrane, MDEA) with 170+ installations across 3 technology platforms and 30+ sieve types. Applications include SMR-produced hydrogen purification, electrolyzer hydrogen polishing, chlor-alkali waste gas recovery, and biogas cleanup.
- Hydrogen Refueling Stations (HRS) Complete hydrogen refueling station solutions integrating compression, storage, chilling, dispensing, controls, and certification. Scalable capacities from 200–6,000 kg/day supporting 350/700 bar dispensing for transit buses, trucks, light-duty vehicles, and heavy equipment. 60 complete stations plus 55+ stations with Hydrexia subcomponents installed globally.
- CO2 Handling Systems Integrated CO2 capture, purification, compression, liquefaction, storage, and tanker filling systems for blue hydrogen applications, enhanced oil recovery (EOR), and industrial CO2 reuse markets. Includes relocatable skid design to avoid stranded asset risk as fields decline.
- Mobile Hydrogen Refueling Stations (MHRS) Mobile hydrogen refueling station solutions designed for flexible deployment, utilizing hydrogen from regional production facilities. Targeted at early markets and geographies lacking permanent refueling infrastructure.
- Relocatable Hydrogen Refueling Stations (RHRS) Relocatable hydrogen refueling stations for hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric vehicles, bundled with supply, operation, and maintenance services. Previously deployed in Malaysia (UMW Toyota) and Philippines (Toyota Philippines), with new Australia order.

Hydrexia partnerships and signals
Strategic signalPartnerships
Seven partnerships are on record, tiered strategic, core and flagship.
- Energy Research Institute @ NTU (ERI@N), Nanyang Technological UniversitystrategicIndustry-academia research collaboration to jointly develop coupling technologies between magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage and solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and electrolysis (SOEC) systems. Leverages thermal synergy for zero-carbon energy loop applications including AI computing center power supply, hydrogen energy storage stations, zero-carbon industrial parks, and off-grid microgrids.
- KPT Chemical Group (Vietnam)coreFirst commercial contract in Vietnam for hydrogen technology solutions. Hydrexia provides MHX solid-state hydrogen storage containers and mobile hydrogen refueling stations (MHRS). KPT distributes and deploys solutions in Vietnam using hydrogen from SEDC Energy's Darul Hana H2 Plant in Sarawak, Malaysia.
- Apollo Mechanical ContractorscoreU.S. commercial partner for deployment of low-temperature solid-state hydrogen storage system at Klickitat Valley Health hospital in Goldendale, Washington. Apollo handles local installation and integration with hospital fuel cell system. Represents Hydrexia's first U.S. market breakthrough.
- SEDC Energy and Regional PartnersstrategicCompleted first-ever regional maritime shipment of solid-state hydrogen storage system (MHX) across major Asian seaports. Demonstrates commercial viability of regional maritime hydrogen trade using Hydrexia's MHx technology. Underscores safety, cost-efficiency, and scalability of MHX containers.
- Toyota Motor Corporation Australia (TMCA)flagshipOrder for relocatable hydrogen refueling stations (RHRSs) to support hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles in Australia.

Hydrexia competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Linde plc: Global industrial gas incumbent with the largest merchant hydrogen production footprint, on-site supply, and clean hydrogen projects. Competes broadly with Hydrexia's SMR-PSA, purification, and refueling offerings and has the scale and balance sheet to outbid Hydrexia on turnkey industrial hydrogen contracts.
- Iwatani Corporation: Japan-headquartered industrial gas and hydrogen energy company with strong Asia-Pacific presence in liquid hydrogen, refueling stations, and hydrogen logistics. Directly competes with Hydrexia in Japan/Australia/Southeast Asia mobility and hospital backup-power use cases.
- Chart Industries: U.S.-based cryogenic and hydrogen process technology supplier providing liquefaction, storage, and transport equipment. Directly competes with Hydrexia MHx in the hydrogen storage and transport market, but on the cryogenic/compressed side.
- Air Liquide: Fortune 500 industrial gas major and Series C strategic investor in Hydrexia. Air Liquide operates global hydrogen production, distribution, and refueling infrastructure and overlaps with Hydrexia's full hydrogen value chain — making it both a partner and a direct competitor.
Emerging players
- Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies: German developer of liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) technology for hydrogen transport and storage. Competes with Hydrexia's MHx as an alternative hydrogen transport paradigm, particularly for cross-border maritime trade.
- ITM Power: UK-listed electrolyzer and hydrogen refueling station provider. Overlaps with Hydrexia in green hydrogen production and HRS for transportation and industrial customers, especially in Europe and select Asia-Pacific markets.
- Plug Power: U.S. hydrogen fuel cell and refueling infrastructure provider competing in material handling, on-road mobility, and stationary power — overlapping with Hydrexia's HRS and hospital/backup-power applications.
Others
- Cummins (Accelera): Cummins' Accelera business develops electrolyzers, fuel cells, and hydrogen-related powertrain components. Adjacent to Hydrexia's downstream customer base (truck/bus fleets, stationary power) and an indirect peer through shared end markets.
Direct peers
- Nel ASA: Norwegian-listed hydrogen pure-play offering electrolyzers and complete hydrogen refueling stations. Directly comparable in HRS product scope and in serving the same fleet/transportation customer base that Hydrexia targets with its HRS/MHRS offerings.
- GKN Hydrogen (Hydrogen Storage Solutions): Closest direct competitor in metal-hydride solid-state hydrogen storage. GKN Hydrogen commercializes Hy2Gen and HyScale products for stationary and mobility applications and shares Hydrexia's MHx value proposition — Jim Petrecky (Hydrexia US CCO) was previously CCO and Chairman at GKN Hydrogen, underlining the technology overlap.
